Refuse Referendum garners nearly 65% support. Now what?

This past November the referendum to have Shields Township bid out garbage collection in the unincorporated areas passed with over 65% of the vote. The next step is community meetings to determine what are the priorities for the residents. Walter Willis from SWALCO or Solid Waste Agency of Lake County will provide options. Those options MAY include senior discounts, choice of sizes of carts, choice of yard waste inclusion, choice of large item pick up among others. Stay tuned for times and places.
